Happy Easter, part deux

The Easter Bunny hid a few treats for Jeneric and Toddler Wily to find on Easter morning - the bunny even hid the baskets from Grammy and Grampy!

This is what happens when you let them eat all the candy they want!

Happy Easter!

Once again, the Wily Jeneric family trekked to the local science center to have Breakfast with the Bunny. We were cautiously optimistic about a good shot of Jeneric with the Bunny... but this is as close as she'd get:

Toddler Wily was about 6 feet further away! (If you care to remember, here's what happened last year.) So instead of bunny photos, we spent our time petting 1-day old chicks:

And pulleys:

Jeneric played the double bass (unlike Eric's, this bass had rainbow strings):

and both girls pounded on the piano (Jeneric even noticed the monitor overhead that displayed the sine wave of the notes they were hitting):

We ended our time at the science center in the bubble room - Toddler Wily's favorite exhibit.

(look closely - you can see the bubble breaking!)

Knock, knock!

Who's there?
Esther!
Esther who?
It's the Esther bunny!

The entire Wily Jeneric family headed to our local science museum for breakfast with the bunny. This is as close as Toddler Jeneric got to the Big Bunny:

We had much better luck looking at the chicks,

and dying eggs.

Egg-cellent Dye Job

Easter at Chez Wily Jeneric was a low-key affair. We roasted a turkey, with many trimming (no mashed potatoes, though - they'd sprouted into a forest while we were gone). The highlight, of course, was egg dying. Toddler Jeneric supervised (the dye was too hot for tiny fingers to handle) {and just possibly mom was worried about dyeing the floor...}.

The fancy egg was the brainchild of Eric. Snazzy huh? Of course, it was no match to Jenni's plain Jane egg in the egg fight!

Bonus Wily Jeneric Update: We have embarked on the very. last. jar of applesauce. When will Toddler Jeneric slurp the last spoonful? Tune in next time for the exciting conclusion to the Applesauce Adventures!
